Chapter 96: Hermes’ Curse Malfunctions? Truman’s Terrifying Strength

Fike looked in the direction of the voice, finding that the person who spoke was Rowan.

The youth in the scarf continued to speak.

“However, it’s not completely impossible for you to win against that monster! As for the others in your school? They won’t be so lucky.”

Fike ignored him as he continued to scan through the details on the cloth.

‘Ah Fei’s opponent is Rowan? Cazino’s is Serena?’

His intuition told him that today would not be a good day.

Seeing that Fike had ignored him, Rowan went on anyway.

“I have a method to help you defeat that brute. Do you want to hear it?”

Fike finally turned to look at him.

“There’s no need. You should think about how to defeat Ah Fei!”

At that, he turned, preparing to leave.

As his figure departed, Rowan called out from behind him.

“Fike, get to the finals for me! I’ll wait for you at the finish line!”

Fike ignored the youth’s provocation as he left.

Soon, the battles began.

Today’s first battle would be between Cazino and Serena from the Summoning School.

The two sides began their duel. Just like yesterday, Cazino released a familiar hurricane as countless clones of his appeared simultaneously throughout the entire arena.

“I’ve already studied all of your little tricks yesterday!” Serena called back, “Your wind attribute spells are tied to your blade, right?”

Hearing her words, Cazino was shocked.

“What? You can actually see through my art?”

Before he could even finish his words, a huge bird seemingly made of ice appeared in the sky, mercilessly attacking all of Cazino’s clones at once.

In an instant, it spat a storm of freezing mist that filled the arena.

All of Cazino’s clones were frozen solid immediately.

His hurricane also wavered before gradually disappearing.

Serena raised her hand again, this time summoning a huge grizzly bear that charged directly toward the frozen Cazinos.

With a thunderous roar, the bear spat out wicked flames, destroying the frozen clones one by one.

“I’ve found you! This match is about to end!”

Serena yelled confidently.

“Go! Bear-Bear! Give him one last hit!”

As the bear charged toward Cazino’s frozen true body, a rush of flames trailed closely behind the creature.

Cazino instantly fell.

“The victor of the match, Serena of the Summoning School!

“The first of the top 20 freshmen has been born!”

The host called in a melodious voice.

Witnessing the extremely short match, Fike couldn’t help but sigh.

‘I can’t underestimate my opponents!’

Cazino, who had given him a huge headache yesterday, had actually fallen instantly in his match.

Fike didn’t have much time to think before the host spoke again.

“The next match will definitely be one of the highlights for today!

“The result of this match will directly affect the final rankings of the Spell School and the Forging School!

“The contenders are none other than the number one of the Spell School, Fike!

“Going against the number one of the Forging School, Truman! Let’s give them a loud round of applause!”

Fike responded accordingly, and went onto the arena. Meanwhile, Truman’s hulking figure also emerged from the opposite side.

Meanwhile, on the rostrum of the Spell School, a group of teachers looked on at Fike in worry.

“Looks like our luck is really bad indeed! I didn’t expect for Fike’s first opponent to be such a powerful one.”

Cisco muttered warily.

“Regardless of whether he wins or loses the match, it looks like Fike will finally have to unleash all of his strength!”

Chambers said indifferently.

Professor Maggie looked back and forth between the two.

“Even so, we still need to have some confidence in Fike! Although that Truman looks very strong, he doesn’t seem to have any substantial offensive abilities, right?”

Even as she was speaking, Maggie also had the faint feeling that perhaps the mysteries of Fike’s hidden moves would finally have to be revealed soon.

The match was about to begin.

The two contenders in the arena stepped forward, approaching each other.

“Fike, I’ll prove to you today that I’m a better match for Molly! A beautiful woman is only suitable for the strong!”

Fike was silent as he thought helplessly to himself.

‘I didn’t expect that he’d still be thinking about that. It seems that if I can’t take him down decisively today, he won’t let this matter rest!”

The gong sounded, and the match began.

Fike unsheathed his Hermes’ Curse, as Truman revealed his giant hammer, toying with it in his huge and powerful hands.

“Fike, let me torture you properly before I take you out! Hahahaha! I hope that your frail body can withstand my attacks, don’t die on me so quickly!”

As soon as he was finished speaking, the giant swung the colossal hammer toward Fike.

Fike instinctively dodged the rapid swing, but before he realised it, the hammer had once again been raised, already swinging toward him again.

It carved through the air viciously like a hot knife through butter.

As the head of the mallet approached at terminal velocity, now centimeters away from him, Fike could clearly feel a strong force of wind following behind the hammer.

Seeing that the coming strike would be a fierce one, Fike held up his demonic sword to parry.

However, this time, the demonic eye on its guard did not emit the bloody red light as usual.

[Hidden Information: Truman’s hammer has no quality. All magic abilities cannot affect it.]

Fike was caught off guard by the hidden message.

‘I didn’t expect that he’d be wielding such a terrifyingly heavy weapon so easily by relying only on his brute strength.’

The hulking blow from the giant hammer landed squarely on his body.

However, Fike now had the protection of the Demigod’s Body.

The supposedly devastating blow simply felt like it was scratching an itch.

Fike suddenly realized that he had been excessively cautious.

Seeing that his heavy blow had not caused any damage to Fike, Truman was also taken aback.

“Kid, how did you block that? What is your body made of?”

Seeing his hesitation, Fike did not answer. Instead, he seized the opportunity to rush directly toward his opponent’s arm.

The Sword Qi swirling wildly around his magical blade ran rampant.

He swung it in a quick slash. The wave of Sword Qi followed in wake of the blade, backing up the initial arc with a flurry of slashes onto Truman’s thick skin.

The giant’s arm was soon splattered with blood.

“So that’s what that weapon of yours does?”

Truman roared.

“Fine, kid. Now taste my final strike!”
